How much will it cost, when will it be completed and can we expect it to solve the Social Care crisis, eliminate Fiscal Drag by increasing the personal tax allowance, fix a badly fractured NHS, deal with escalating knife crime,etc, etc.

Well, Rachel from Accounts? Is this your idea of a Magic Bullet? And will it save your career when Keir decides it's time for a Cabinet re-shuffle?

I don’t think it’s a case of ‘no market for small starter homes’. I think they are not being built because they are less profitable.

It’s not fake news, it’s what the opposition do, I think we’ve had this discussion before? We’re now seeing the opposition now opposing it, when as the last government they wanted it to go ahead. Call me a cynic.

That’s why they’re called the Opposition 🧐

Well I never! shock

But - doesn't the Opposition do the opposite to the previous government when they get elected?
Or do both sides change their minds when they are elected?

I'm getting confused now.

I think the runway is probably needed . The first thing she seems to be involved with that is actually useful. The very first thing where I think she is on the right ‘track’ ( or runway !)
